Yep, folks I got rid of the Bee that wouldn’t seem to stay quiet in spite of my best efforts. Don’t ask what I did with it. Let’s just say it’s in a far better place.
I took the Lord part because in my little domain, I can do that. Besides liking Peter O’Toole.
Jim (formerly known as Jim)
As long as the Bee isn’t in your bonnet, you should be all set. 
And glad to meet the new you, Sire.
bows to the Lord
Does this mean we have to curtsy to you at dopefests?
Lordy, lordy, my SDMB directory is just a mess!
All hail Lord Jim!
Lord Jim! I love the name.
I understand it’s a good book, too. But I only enjoyed my Dad’s Classics Illustrated Comic Book version.
Stop it!!!
No one else is allowed to change their name, damnit!
As with beatle, I’ll still be calling you Jim 
:: curtsies her way out of the thread ::
TruePisces, the Bee is no longer, it is an unBee.
Zy, I would think curtsy is the least you should do.
bea… I mean Ringo, see, I’m obviously having trouble with my SDMB directory, too.
Katie, thanks, you may hug and kiss me all you want the next time we meet, I won’t mind, really.
Mauvaise, see note above to Katie, same goes for you. I won’t mind, promise.
Jim (the invisible ‘B’ version)
Dude. My virtual daddy-in-law is a Lord.
I wonder if I get a funky title now . . .
::enters slowly and majestically in my dark purple very low cut evening gown <all the rage in Paris this year, you understand>:: Why my dear friend, Lord Jim. I am so pleased to see that you are finally getting the recognition you deserve.
::drops into a deep curtsey, overbalances slightly, and has to be rescued by the Lord himself, who in helping me regain my footing pulls me rather closer to him than I expected to find myself::
BLUSH Oh. My. Well. Thank you so much, kind sir.
::reaches up and kisses him on his cheek, then rushes out of the room, too embarrassed to stay::
Congrats, hon.
Could this be…an arch-enemy?
Have at thee, Coward of the Light!
’punha, the title “esquire” immediately comes to mind. iampunha, esq. That sounds kinda cool, let me know, it can be arranged.
Purp, come back here. You can curtsy all you want in that low cut gown. If you lose your balance, all the better.
DLD, I don’t make a very good arch-enemy, a little to easy going for such a role.
Jim (who’s kinda liking the Lord thing)
::hearing my name just as I’m about to make my exit, I turn to see who called me:: Oh, well, if you insist, I will stay. For a while, anyway. Did you happen to have any er…refreshments… on hand? wide-eyed coquettish look
And what’s up with you, Dark Lord? It would seem to me that you would be the Coward of the Light, since you’re the Dark Lord. Or, perhaps you misplaced a comma <pesky, independent little cusses, aren’t they?> and you meant to say Coward**,** of the Light?
Actually I could be considered a Coward FROM the Light, not OF the light. He’d be the Coward OF the Light. And I’m not a Coward! I’m so evil I can manage to pass by a pet store without making “ooh-ahh” noises at the kittens in the window, and occasionally don’t help old women cross the street!
How’s THAT for Dark?
MWAAAAHAAAHAAAAAAAAAAA!!
Cool. Could you get my virtual wife a matching outfit or whatnot? Make the Role-Playing even more interesting?
I have to reserve ‘Lady’, but I have Maiden available. The fair maiden Palmyra. Hmmm, a bit long. How about Maid 'Myra? Or should it be a more formal?
DLD, I get it, I think, but based on this: <<<I’m so evil I can manage to pass by a pet store without making “ooh-ahh” noises at the kittens in the window, and occasionally don’t help old women cross the street!>>>, you are WAY too evil for me. Begone!
Jim (not the Coward of the Light, the title is LORD!)
Dude, you may be a Lord, but when it comes to naming your daughter you bite royal ass.
What you want to do is suck up to royal ass. Crucial difference:)
And she ain’t not maiden.
::RUNNING FAR AWAY::
Lord? Kinda high falutin’ for a cowboy, ain’t it?
There’s an extraneous T in there somewhere. See if you can find it.
Hey, kid, help me out here. Do Lord’s get to have Dukes and Duchesses? If so, y’all are in.
Arden, I thought so too, but they went for it anyway.
*[sup]Extraneous T, what did I win?[/sup]
Jim (still without the B)
Jim you went for a shakespear quote.
To be, or not to be
obviously you are not to be
So why just a Lord and not go whole hog and be a king?
